Corrections and Changes
This online guide includes the following corrections and changes:
- The descriptions of the -zk, zk0, and zk0u compiler options erroneously stated that the characters in the range A0-DF are single-byte Hiragana; these characters are actually single-byte Katakana.
- Missing line breaks in the list of Assembly directives and opcodes have been added.
- A new warning, W124 is generated (instead of W111) if a comparison result is always true or always false.
- A description of the WLIB environment variable has been added.
